I have an M function which takes a URL as a parameter and then retrieves the data for further processing. I'm calling that function with a list of URLs (could be hundreds) and for each url I have to specify the credentials as anonymous. Is there a way to do that in the code so I don't have to interact with the dialog in PBI Desktop for each one?
Current code is:
(siteUrl as text) as table =>
let
Source = Table.FromColumns({Lines.FromBinary(Web.Contents(siteUrl), null, null, 65001)}),
'do more stuff here
Any help anybody can provide is much appreciated.
Hi @rodzillacorp,
From below thread, it seems that currently we cannot specify credential in Power Query so that viewers don't have to provide credentials manually for data source connection.
